Finally finished college at 41. Don't drink too much kids- it's bad for ya!

I just found out today that I got my 3rd consecutive Deans list, which is pretty amazing considering my normal college GPA used to be around a 2.2.

I have horrible problems motivating myself. (still do)
I have a very hard time taking seriously the political philosophy of someone who defends the Borg.

Congratulations! I have 1 year left here at 32. Might I ask what your degree was in?

I had no idea you were that old. I assumed you were in your twenties like most of us.
Your highly adored emperor/dictator/grand-poobah/all that good stuff.

Hey hey!!!!!! Congrats and happy birthday - doesn't get much better than that.

I also graduated later, it took me 11 years because I kept running out of money, but it's pretty cool when you not only do it, but paid for it by yourself. I know I value my degree more because of all that I put into it to get it.

So throw some confetti!
